    #3 beef rib with house noodle soup
    Jessica C.

    Delicious beef soup and plenty of pickled mustard/daikon on the side self serve. Tried the milk tea very sweet, but still tastes good.

    #4.Sour Veggie with Fish Fillets Noodle Soup
    Terri S.

    Very delicious and super sweet workers! The sour soup with the fish was so yummy. The fish fillets were soft and boneless, and the sour veggies tasted like a home cooked meal. It felt very comforting eating this meal today. Their thin egg noodles are super delicious, plus their portions are huge! Very much worth the prices.

    Menu as of 6/14/26

    This restaurant opened fairly recently, so I decided to give it a try. The menu is pretty straightforward with a limited selection of items. From what I understand, drinks are only $1 before 12 PM, and after 5 PM, their noodle dishes are $9.95. I ordered the B2 Simmered Beef Pit Brisket Noodle Soup with medium spice. The broth looked simple, but it had a nice sweetness from the daikon. The medium spice level wasn't spicy to me at all, though! The brisket was tender, and they provided a dipping sauce that paired well with the meat. I chose the hor fun noodles, and the portion was surprisingly generous. The service was quick and efficient. One of the employees from the previous restaurant is still working there, and she's always so friendly and sweet. Overall, I enjoyed the food, but I probably wouldn't return. It's just not the type of cuisine I typically crave or seek out, even though I thought the meal itself was good.

    Got the B8 (bean sauce and pork noodle) and B1 (sichuan spicy beef noodle soup). Ordered both as medium spicy-neither were spicy at all. They do have chili oil and sriracha on the side to add if needed. Meat was tender on the B1. For the B8, it came with a separate bowl of broth that was a bit salty-didn't seem to add much to the noodles. Portions were pretty big for the price, not too much meat though. Clean and easy parking though-they're right across from Asian Pearl. Something different to try if you're in the mood for noodles!

    pig liver noodle
    Elaine T.

    Tried the newly opened Ken's Noodle House Bone-in Beef Noodle Soup - The homemade noodles had a great chewy texture and paired perfectly with the broth. The bone in beef was good too Pig Liver Noodle Soup - A bit underwhelming for me. The Hong Kong-style thin noodles were nice, but the broth lacked the depth of flavor. The pig liver is not as good as expected. But the staff is nice and friendly

    I really like coming here for their noodles and I like it in the beef brisket with clear broth has really nice daikon and you can pick your own noodle. . I love how the broth has no MSG and it's really clear also it's umami too. . I like coming here for their soft opening deal for the month of May 2026 for their 9.99 noodle bowl from 4pm to 730pm daily. . The pork intestine and sour veggie soup is another favorite. I like their fresh rice noodle which is nice and light and slippery texture. The ramen here is hand pulled egg noodles in house. They even have the thin egg noodles too. After finishing your noodles, free of charge to request more or ask for another noodle to try. . Ambiance here is casual and cozy. Fast place to eat and go. Good pricing. Great parking spots. Service is family friendly. Great for groups. Thanks for reading and have a yelptastic day. Hope this review helps.

    Decided to try this spot on a Sunday, it was not busy and we were seated immediately. We thought this was a pho restaurant but when we got seated, we realized that it was a Chinese noodle restaurant. We ended up ordering B4, B5, B8, and the pig ears to share as an appetizer. B4 was delicious, highly recommend, however B5 was a Miss. the pork liver texture was off and tasted very undercooked. The noodles were a bit too thick that it didn't soak the flavors of the broth. B8 was ok but flavors didn't stand out. Same with the pig ears. It was a bit bland so it didn't stand out to me. Overall, if I were to come again, I would try the beef noodle soup.

    Bone in Beef Noodle Soup with house made Ramen
    Connie B.

    I came on a Sunday afternoon and it was already quite busy with a almost a full house. Thankfully there was still a table so my party was able to be seated quickly. The service was quick and honestly I did think they are a decent size and their aesthetic is cool but the food was mediocre. Their bone in beef noodle soup was alright. The meat was a bit tough but the soup itself had great flavor. I just would never crave this and the rest of the menu is lackluster which is why it gets a 3 star for me. The simmered beef brisket noodle soup was quite bland. I added some chili oil and the whole soy sauce they gave on the side but it was still missing more salt. Also the brisket was quite tough and I could not chew through more than have the pieces and I enjoy eating things like intestines and tendons too. Sadly I would not be coming back but it may be for some people craving this style of noodle soup.

    Saw this place after leaving SF market and decided to give it a try. Entered on a random Weds evening and it was pretty empty. Got seated immediately and we got B1 (spicy beef noodle soup) and B3 (bone in beef noodle soup). Let me tell you, one of the most elite beef noodle soups ive ever had (and trust me, we've been around the block lol). You could smell the delicious broth before your bowls even hit the table, very tasty and concentrated flavor, in combination with the beef itself is SOOO tender, juicy, and literally melts in your mouth! The medium spice level is perfect, very subtle heat but has a considerable kick. Inside was clean and roomy, plenty of seating for almost 60+ people. Will def be coming back for more! 他們也說中文! So thats a bonus ;) On top of all that, this place is extremely generous with the noodles! We got the refill and it is basically a whole serving worth of it! I was expecting at least maybe half of the serving we originally got

    Great place for noodles. This place replaced the old pho place at the same location. Guess they inherited all the restaurant equipment The inside ambience is well renovated, every looks new. Food quality is good. You can tell they really care about noodles. Price is average, decent portion size Staff are overall friendly. Easy to chat with. Will definitely come back again to this noodle house!

    Intestine soup, spicy beef noodle soup
    Freyda T.

    My partner and I decided to try out Ken's Noodle House as we saw there was a grand opening sign outside. We arrived for a late lunch on a Friday and there were plenty of tables for us. The moment we walked in, we were kindly greeted by staff and sat in a table. They brought out the menu and cold waters for us as we sat down. The decor of the restaurant was nice and modern, very spacious and perfect for any size groups! The restaurant specializes in Chinese/Taiwanese noodles like beef noodle soup and popular appetizers. With each noodle soup, you have the option to choose from: ho fun (fat rice noodles), HK style noodles, and a third option which I am forgetting...They also let you add extra noodles free of charge if you're able to finish it. We ended up ordering the spicy beef noodle soup (mild) with HK noodles and intestine noodle soup (mild) with ho fun. Without ordering extra noodles, the bowls were already so stacked and generous with noodle and meat portions. The beef was tender and flavorful, my partner enjoyed his bowl. I will go back again and again for the intestine soup -- I don't know of any other place that makes an authentic bowl like this!

    B1 Sichuan Style Spicy Beef Noodle
    Brandon N.

    Tried this spot to see how it is since it took over when our old favorite closed down. Some of the service people stayed and are still working here with the new owner which is great because they were good people. The broth was surprisingly well flavored, clear and clean tasting beef flavor. Not too salty not too denser the beef was soft and tasted pretty good. I chose the thin egg noodles and although it wasn't bad it was a bit too soft for me. I tend to like all my noodles with a slight bit of chew left. I didn't use any condiments to season the broth and I was still happy with the flavor. They do allow you to choose from different noodle options per selection so maybe if I tried a different noodle option I would have been happier. But I wasn't disappointed but I wasn't blown away either. For my drink I chose the strawberry green tea, really good drink. You can taste a light tea and not too sweet not too overpowering strawberry fruit flavor to it. They had a special for the teas, $1 before 12pm. Sale won't last as their business is just staring but it's a good place to eat, but with other options I'd only go if I were already in the area and not sure what else to eat.

    Sichaun beef with hand made ramen
    Isabel T.

    Came around 12 on sunday. Parking was okay but it gets busier as it gets later. I believe they had a 1$ drink before 12 deal, they had a sign but took it away. We ordered B1 mild and B2 (clear broth) no spicy, both 12.95, total around 30$. Came out prettyy quick, like less than 10 minutes. First glance, toppings to noodle ratio way off, 1.5 piece of bokchoy, 5-6 small pieces of meat, and a little bean sprouts. Soooo much noodle idek if i ate half of it. The meat in mine was pretty tender, i dont like that most of it is the collagen part, tasted weird. The beef brisket/stew was not tender tho. Taste it pretty good for both broths. We also got the supposed hand/housemade ramen, but it didnt seem handpulled or wtv at all? Reminded me of spaghetti noodles or smth Not much service tbh, they werent rude but not friendly. Overall, cheap but not that great. Not enough meat or veggie way too much noodle, not a fan of eating straight carbs.

They will buzz your buzzer and you pick up at the designated window. The service was quick - we got our food within 5 minutes of ordering.

They have pickled mustard greens, pickled long beans, bamboo shoots, roasted soy bean, roasted peanuts, scallions, cilantro, and hot sauces. - A1 Guilin Rice Noodle: the noodle was very soft (but a bit too soft for me). The meat pieces were tender and good. The crackling pork pieces were super crispy and gave a nice texture to the dish. - A10 Braised Pork Dry Tossed Noodle: the curly noodle was firmer type than A1 and had a bit of chew (which was similar to instant noodle) and I prefer this. The braised pork was flavorful and delicious! - B11 Preserved Duck Egg with Tofu: the tofu was soft and was a good combo with the preserved duck egg. The egg itself didn't have very strong taste so it was very pleasant. The spicy sauce was mild for me but the overall dish was good. - C1 Old Gui Lin Boba Milk Tea (less sugar): good and milky.

It was super tough! I did enjoy the flavor of the soups though. It seemed like the broth was high fat content. I really liked the self-serve condiment bar. This was one of the highlights for me. I'll be a returning customer.

The drunken noodle plate was so BIG, then compared to the yum woonsen and khao soo those were soo small. I wanna say their stir fried dishes r big portions and everything else is small ig.

They were stuffed full of meat, but I felt like the seasoning was a little less than and also they were unevenly cooked. I still tried one though because a gyoza is a gyoza. As my main, I had the karamiso ramen with a spicy miso based broth with seasoned ground chicken, veggies and chili threads for an extra kick. I enjoyed this bowl of ramen. It was the perfect level of spice. I am partial to ground meat in ramen, so I liked that this was an option. The veggies were cooked al dente which I appreciated, and the broth was filling and flavorful. The noodles were thin which is my favorite type. Attentive service here. OUr water cups were always filled no matter how hot the ramen was. Solid meal here.

    Getting home cooked style meal cant be any more satisfying while traveling and authentic Chinese…read morefood is harder to find! To all my canto peeps, this will be the place where you feel like home. However a tad variation of preferences to taste buds. My family is from a different area from the Mr. with a different flavor profile than his. So here is our take: braised beef noodle soup - we loved but the Mr. loved it more. Soup reminded me of shoyu ramen with garlic. Simple, soothing and flavorful. I loved it but it was missing a few spices I am personally used to such as more spice mix and pickled mustard greens. House Fried Rice (Thursday special) - this was simple yet satisfying. With shrimp and Chinese sausage in it. Carb overload but it was such a comfort food we cant help but finish it. House soup dumplings which we also liked but again he loved this one more also. Again, simple yet flavorful, clean comfort food while i felt the skin was a tad thicker than what I prefer. So this one depends on your preferences. Regardless, this was still good. Ambiance: clean and welcoming. They have a TV screen to highlight their food items with pictures which I always love to help me find what i want to eat. But wont lie, it makes me want to get every item on there. They all look yummy. Service: Its a family run restaurant and one person serving everyone plus seating and taking the bill. So during rush hour, do expect wait times but I completely understand and don't mind it. I can see they are busy and would rather than go to a place that is slow where the server walks like a sloth. That is always an eye sore to me. Cost: prices are reasonable and same to any other places similar. Parking is in a huge plaza and can be crowded during rush hour but still enough just may need to walk further a bit. If we ever travel this way again, will definitely be back!
